Malala Loss Of Education

Kristen Lewis’ article, “Malala the Powerful” was about how a girl as shot in the head by the terrorist group, the Taliban because she was using her voice to stand up and say everyone deserves an education, especially girls. In Pakistan, the religion is strict therefore the Taliban decided to control the government, that made life for women and girls brutal. The Taliban ordered that girls were not allowed to attend school. Malala completely disagreed so she used her voice on the internet incognito to bring awareness about what was happening. The Taliban was out of control, Malala’s family was forced to move South. With all the commotion she revealed her identity, making her well known world wide. Once news broke on who she was, the Taliban

Malala Yousafzai believes that education is a basic right for every person. Malala, born July twelfth, nineteen ninety-seven is an activist for girls education. She was shot at just fifteen years old as a result of her life as an activist. Malala was nominated for the twenty-thirteen Nobel Peace Prize, but she did not win it. Many people have mixed feelings about the outcome of her nomination for the prestigious award. Malala believes that education is the basic right of boys and girls, men and women everywhere. The controversy which surrounds her life is a direct result of these beliefs, and is the reason she was shot.

Malala was a young girl living in the middle east, sneaking around nearby terrorist trying to get an education. One day, on their way to school, her bus was stopped and attacked by terrorist. The terrorist started shooting and Malala was shot in the head. She miraculously survived and after years of therapy recovered. She now travels the world sharing her story and standing up for girls everywhere. Malala took a tragedy and turned it into an inspiration.

Malala Yousafzai speaks out after she was shot by the Taliban on the left side of her head for attending school. She then decided to recount the event and write a speech which she presented to the United Nations. Her speech was intended to bring awareness to people that education should be available to males and females.

Why? Because she was not only a 15-year-old girl; she was also a crusader for girls’ right to go to school. This work had made her famous throughout Pakistan and around the world. It had also made her a target of the Taliban.” (6) This is also a challenge because Malala would be risking a lot of things by standing up to the Taliban and going to school. She would be risking the death or torture of herself and her family. The article stated, “The bullet severely damaged her hearing and fractured her skull, causing her brain to swell dangerously. Fortunately, the physicians in Birmingham were able to control the swelling. Over the past months, she has undergone several operations to repair her skull and improve her hearing.” (9) The last challenge is a big challenge for Malala because she will have to go through many surgeries to fix the damage from the bullet that the gunmen shot at her. Her brain and hearing might never get back to normal or how they were before the bullet hit her.

Malala Yousafzai is a Pakistani activist for education, especially for females, and equal rights to education in the middle east. She revolutionized education equality for children. She has received many peace awards, including the Nobel Peace Prize. The Taliban outlawed education in Pakistan, where she lived, for all females in 2009. She continued to attend classes and speak out on her BBC blog, the radio, and was even in a documentary about her life in the middle east and going to school as a girl despite the new law. In early October of 2012, when Malala was 15, she became the victim of an attempted murder by a Taliban gunman. She was shot in the head on the bus ride home from school. She was rushed to the hospital and after being stabilized, she was moved to another hospital to remove the bullet. After her tragic personal experience, she became well known and used her newfound popularity to advocate for education in the middle east. This speech is just one example of the many speeches she gave to bring attention to the problem. She also asked many other influential people with a higher status to help her bring awareness to the cause. To understand Malala’s speech the reader needs to understand what her goal is, what rhetorical devices she uses to reach that goal and how effective the speech is. She is quite effective in getting her goal across to the audience through her speeches by using her public speaking skills to get her audience to agree with what she has to say.

In the article Malala the Powerful, by Kristen Lewis is about Malala, a girl that lives in Mingora, a city in the Swat Valley. The Taliban are tracking Malala and trying to kill her and her family. They saw her on a bus and shot her in the ear. She has taken many surgeries to fix the ear and also to fix her brain. But at the end, she still survives, but they are tracking her.

However, Malala was driven enough to seek a deep change. But in trying to gain more rights for women in her country, Malala was shot by someone who hoped to prevent her from for reaching this goal. However, even despite these horrible and unfortunate

Malala reflects upon the personal choice that she made to stand up for her human rights, specifically the right for women to be educated. The personal choice that she makes threatens her life, forcing her to leave her country. Even after almost being killed by the Taliban, Malala still speaks out about human rights and the

The motif of education appears very early on in this biography as Malala expresses her love for education and her desire to be the smartest in her class. However, restrictions to the right to an education causes the motif to develop. When the Taliban kept females from attending school using threats, Malala states, that education is “for every boy and every girl in the world” and “is my right”. This only drove Malala into her continuation into the fight for equality in education to fight ignorance, increasing the importance of this motif as a movement. The final message that sums up this motif and a major point of this story is the importance for females to gain an education in order oppose ignorance and oppressors.

Chapter 23: Malala was seen as a hero to the Pakistani people due to her efforts to improve the lives of many of the people through her promotion of education. Despite the fact that she was a target, as was her father, she did not shy away from doing what she thought was right and was not afraid to stand up for her beliefs. Many did see her as a representative of Pakistan as she had won the Nobel Peace Prize, she was well known to Pakistanis and the world. While certainly she was well known before the shooting the shooting only increased her renown worldwide. The Pakistanis largely viewed her as what was right and good about their country, devote to her faith, her education and to making the world a better place for all, especially young women seeking education.

Malala begins to speak out, writing blog posts to inform people in other countries about what exactly is happening in Pakistan. This new stage of life marks Malala as being more fearful, afraid to wear bright clothes to school in fear of being noticed. However, she still stands strong, giving speeches and making it known what she believes. She became well known for standing for the rights of education for women. In October of 2012, the Taliban shot Malala in the head as she was riding the bus home after exams.

Her autobiography, I am Malala, tells her journey of growing up in Pakistan advocating for girl’s right to education. Like Matilda, Malala is growing up in a dangerous and war torn environment. In a Taliban controlled area Malala suffered the loss of her right to an education when she reached the age of thirteen. She also suffered the loss of everything she had ever known when she was forced to move to England. A child narrator in I am Malala focuses on the heart of the problem; one girls small and simple wish to further her education. Like Matilda, Malala finds peace of mind in her war torn home by immersing herself in academic pursuits such as reading books and committing herself to her schoolwork. However, just like Matilda reading is a dangerous activity in her home village. However, as Malala lives in Pakistan the consequences of rebelling are much more severe and pose much greater risk to Malala and her family. Unfortunately this means that Malala’s emotional ‘escape’ from the Taliban only puts her into further danger. Both Malala and Oskar are in some aspects of their character, very precocious. Oskar has knowledge and vocabulary well beyond his years and has experienced grief that not many young children have had to deal with. This maturity can also be seen in Malala’s mature perspective on terrorists and her courage in standing up to adults. A perfect example of this is when Malala explains what she would do when confronted with a terrorist, “I would plead, ‘OK, shoot me, but first listen to me. What you are doing is wrong. I’m not against you personally, I just want every girl to go to school.’” Malala’s maturity in dealing with the horrifying presence of the Taliban is inspirational, and it is clear to see why in 2014 Malala became the youngest person in history to receive a Nobel Peace Prize. However, like Oskar Malala has moments where we see her childlike nature, such as when

The candid and disinterested voice of Malala is used to create a kind of attention between the terrorist shot and people who don’t receive human right such as education. Furthermore, Malala used a privet aspect of her life to persuade her speech which is about terrorist shot. She wanted to find a solution by telling her story. The best solution is to receive education for everyone.

The outstanding novel, I Am Malala: The girl who stood up for education and was shot by the Taliban, was written by Malala Yousafazai and Christina Lamb. Published by Back Bay Books at New York in June 2015, it takes place in The Swat Valley of Pakistan from 1997 to 2013 and mainly discusses the issue of women’s rights. This novel argues that women all over the world should have the right to an education, including many strengths such as cultural detail and emotion as well as weaknesses such as many Urdu words and complicated passages about global affairs. It demonstrates these strengths and shortcomings all throughout the book in even doses, resulting in a very intruiging story.
